SMOKE DETECTOR TESTING

Fire detector test and service equipment must be safe for both the engineer and system. At a minimum it must comply with international codes and standards and be approved / endorsed by detector manufacturers and third party listing agencies but it also needs to be cost-effective, portable and versatile. The Solo range meets and exceeds all of these requirements and more.

Functional (or Operational) Testing

Functional testing is accomplished by introducing a smoke, or simulated smoke, stimulus from the protected area through the vents of a detector to the sensor (s). It is required by all national standards around the world and testing by electronic means that do not involve this test is not sufficient to comply.

HEAT AND CO DETECTOR TESTING

Heat Detector Testing

Functional checking of heat detectors, with a genuine heat source, is now required by major national standards around the world. Testing with heat sources not designed for the purpose can be both dangerous and damaging. The Solo range of heat detector testing equipment, designed specifically for the purpose, provides a genuine professional’s solution.

CO Detector Testing

Many multi-sensor fire detectors detect carbon monoxide (CO) as well as smoke and / or heat. Under international codes and standards the CO cell needs to be functionally tested with a CO stimulus from the protected area through the detector vents to the sensor.

Solo C6 – used in conjunction with Solo 330 / 332 dispensers - provides a safe way of achieving this with CO concentration levels high enough to activate an alarm, but low enough not to pose danger to user health.

REMOVAL AND CLEANING

ACCESS POLES

Detectors need removal and replacement for various reasons. The vast majority are fitted on bayonet mountings and the task can be done using specialist tools fitted to appropriate access poles. Using such specialist devices saves the time, cost, disruption and risk to safety that ladders, scaffolding or access gear represents.

Access poles are required for detectors out of normal reach. Their use saves the time, cost, disruption and risk to safety that ladders, scaffolding or access gear represents.

The value of these access poles over ‘other poles’ is not just the quality of their design and manufacture. It becomes evident when they are required on a daily basis and / or are used at great heights. Pull-wound glass fiber construction provides non conductivity with an optimum strength to weight ratio and high tolerance manufacture ensures minimum possible whip or bend at height relative to weight and cost. This, coupled with the simple locking mechanism of the telescopic sections means that these access poles combine ease of use with design and manufacturing excellence.

SPEECH INTELLIGIBILITY TESTING

The introduction of VOX brings good news to many: finally a STIPA meter that is accurate, reliable and affordable at the same time! Designed from scratch by the very team that invented STIPA and was responsible for the development of the Speech Transmission Index for the last few decades.

The VOX, with its full-color touch screen, is easy to use and understand even to first-time users of to the Speech Transmission Index. The casual STI user will not have to deal with impossible key combinations, incredibly complex calibration procedures and other discomforts that people have come to expect from STI measuring tools. To the contrary, the VOX is easy to use, intuitive and almost plug-and-play. At the same time, even seasoned STI experts will find every feature they ever wanted.

Every STIPA measurement, whether it is with our meter or any other device, needs a source for the STIPA test signal. The VOXBOX is the most reliable and accurate source on the market.

The VOXBOX can be used as an electronic signal source by utilizing the line-out connection. Or it can be used as a calibrated acoustic signal source, due to its integrated loudspeaker. The VOXBOX is designed to accurately play the STIPA test signal, as well as several other test signals. The device features an interactive LCD touchscreen to show, which allows you to easily control all features and monitor its settings at a glance.
